Sam Smith poses for pictures with fans after arriving at LAX Airport on Thursday (August 21) in Los Angeles.

The 22-year-old British singer is in town to perform at the 2014 MTV VMAs on Sunday (August 24) – be sure to stay tuned to JJJ for all the red carpet and show coverage.

“I’ve been on a couple of dates. I’m good at dates,” Sam recently told Metro UK. “I used to get really nervous but now I’m better. There is one particular guy that I’ve been on a few dates with. I like him but who knows?”
